The Spoon Villain Is Obsessed with the Hero Again Today - Chapter 130



The Wheel of Summer (8)

Even in this dawn without the sun, the unpleasant humidity remained. The stickiness of sweat flowing down the skin, the damp air tightening around the breath…

It was unmistakably summer weather.

“…”

Park Won-hyuk hated this summer so much. It always tormented him. It was the same even when the seasons changed.

Even in the autumn when the whole world was dyed in red, summer did not fade away.

Even in the cold winter when pure white snowflakes piled up, summer remained the same.

Even in the spring when the frozen ground thawed and new sprouts emerged, the dampness of summer showed no sign of leaving.

It was an endless summer. From that day, all time had stopped. Tomorrow, the day after, and the week after that, Park Won-hyuk repeated the same season.

It was like the wheel of a fallen carriage. Unable to move forward, the wheel just spun in place.

No matter how much he struggled, he couldn’t escape this nightmare.

─Screeeeech!

He heard it. The cry of the creature that tormented him every night, the screams of his comrades torn apart by its hands echoed in his ears.

“Heh, heh heh…”

It was no longer a dream. This was reality. The long-awaited moment had arrived.

He would end everything in this place. He would destroy Basago, who had taken everything from him, and respond to the gestures of those who had left.

Soon, he would be able to join them.

Now he would be free. He would be liberated from this endless guilt.

Rumble─!

Basago swung its arm. The mouth on its arm tried to engulf Park Won-hyuk. The teeth that had devoured his friends now aimed to tear his body apart.

Bang─!

Park Won-hyuk lightly extended his hand and blocked the attack. Then, he poured out his maximum magical power.

Swoosh─

It was like watching a giant wave. The energy Park Won-hyuk emitted was vast enough to be seen with the naked eye.

The wave wrapped around Basago’s arm in reverse.

Bang─!

In an instant, Basago’s right arm exploded. As if a bomb had been planted, the arm was shattered without a trace.

Park Won-hyuk smirked.

“This time, it will be very different.”

Already, more than ten years had passed. He hadn’t just been playing around. He hadn’t just been sitting in despair.

Even in despair, he never lost this one desire for revenge.

Even if his life were to end today, he would make sure to bring that guy down.

He could not die before Basago was completely erased from this world.

Fwoosh─!

Basago’s right arm, which had disappeared earlier, regenerated. It was as if he was looking at the newly discovered monster, Seir.

Did he absorb Seir’s abilities in that short time?

“But it’s useless.”

Boom─!

He blew up the arm once again. In front of Park Wonhyuk’s gesture, it was nothing more than a giant piece of styrofoam.

“This can’t be the end.”

For an S-class monster, the attack was somewhat bland. The pattern was monotonous. Basago wouldn’t stop at just this level.

Why was he hiding his power?

Screeeech─!

At that moment, Basago let out a sound. It was a scream, even more bizarre than before.

It sounded as if he was mocking Park Wonhyuk.

“Are you mocking me now?”

Squeeze.

Park Wonhyuk adjusted his leather gloves. He made sure they fit tightly so they wouldn’t fall off.

“Then I’ll go first.”

Tap─!

This time, Park Wonhyuk charged first. Towards Basago’s core.

Swoosh─

At the same time, he gathered all his strength. Energy began to condense in his hand.

A weapon sharper than any sword, more destructive than any blunt instrument, unique to Park Wonhyuk, was completed.

Park Wonhyuk thrust his fist towards Basago’s body.

Boom─!

With a single blow, Basago’s body shattered into pieces. It was broken down so finely that not even bone fragments could be seen.

If it were an ordinary monster, the battle would be considered over at this point.

But….

Ssssh─

The torn flesh did not die but moved alive. It wriggled on the floor and soon seeped into the ground.

Rumble─

What is happening beneath my feet? The ground shook as if an earthquake had occurred.

Then.

Crack─!

The ground split open. A huge mouth popped out from the crack. It was a mouth large enough to swallow the tallest tree on this mountain in one bite.

The mouth swallowed Park Won-hyuk whole. It chewed its contents slowly with sharp teeth.

Crunch─

Crunch─

Snap─!

Suddenly, there was a dull sound as if metal was being chewed inside the mouth. The teeth had hit something.

Grind─!

Grind─!

No matter how hard it bit, it couldn’t chew through. Instead, its own teeth only hurt.

That wasn’t the end.

Splat─!

This time, the roof of the mouth was completely pierced. Blood spurted out like a fountain along with flesh.

“When did you prepare such a surprise gift?”

Park Won-hyuk emerged from the pierced hole. There were no signs of being chewed by the teeth.

Only, he was covered in some dirty blood.

“Ugh. How can blood smell this bad? What have you been eating?”

The giant mouth quickly hid back into the ground.

Then, the familiar Basago appeared in front of him again.

Screech─!

That unpleasant cry was still the same. It was not an easy opponent. It boasted a life as tough as a cockroach.

Flash─!

What trick is it trying to show this time? Basago opened its closed eyelids. The eyes embedded all over its body awakened at once.

Then, tentacles were fired from the numerous eyes.

Snap─!

Without hesitation, Park Won-hyuk jumped straight in. He intended to break through the tentacles directly.

“You think you can take me down with these toys?”

No matter how many tentacles come flying, it doesn’t matter. I can just get rid of them with this hand. And just like that, Park Wonhyuk easily subdued the tentacles as if cutting through thread.

콰앙─!

That was when it happened.

Suddenly, thorns burst from the ground.

The thorns aimed right for the center of Park Wonhyuk’s back.

“Khuk…!”

He barely twisted his body to avoid the thorns, but he couldn’t dodge them completely. A thorn dug into his side.

Park Wonhyuk lost his balance and rolled across the ground a few times.

“So, you pull cheap tricks here…”

He clutched at his side. His shirt was turning red.

Luckily, it was just a cut. He almost got impaled.

“What you see isn’t all there is…”

Just like that massive maw, these thorns came from under the ground.

This entire mountain is probably Basago’s territory. His home turf, basically.

─Keeeeeeek!

Basago freely changed its form. First, its original shape, then it turned into that giant maw, and even a round ball.

And now…

“…!”

It even mimicked the face of a comrade who died a decade ago.

It wasn’t some illusion. It recreated the cold, dead face Park Wonhyuk saw back then, exactly.

That b*stard was toying with him.

“You son of a b*tch…”

Park Wonhyuk bit down on his lower lip. Blood trickled out of his mouth, but he felt no pain.

Only rage, directed at Basago, consumed him.

Park Wonhyuk kicked off the ground and charged forward.

파앗─!

He knew it was a trap. This was all clearly a ruse to lure him in.

But even with full awareness of this, Park Wonhyuk didn’t stop running.

촤악─!

Even though countless tentacles blocked the way, he did not stop. Even though sharp thorns pierced his flesh, he kept moving forward.

Right up to Basago’s face.

“No matter how many times you come back to life, I will crush you again and again!”

From the beginning, there was no turning back. He crushed Basago. Even if the flesh regenerated, he would just repeat the attack.

There was no option to retreat. He poured everything out here.

Swoosh─!

On the contrary, countless tentacles and thorns gnawed at his body. Flesh was pierced, and his intestines ruptured. Blood flowed from his entire body.

“Ugh…!”

The blood that flowed down his forehead passed his eyebrows and seeped into his eyes. His vision turned red. Gradually, Basago’s figure became blurry. His sight darkened.

Then, the faces of his fallen comrades began to appear intermittently. They were much clearer than in his nightmares. It felt like he could reach out and touch them.

It felt like they were alive and breathing.

Were they coming to greet him?

“No….”

Not yet. That b*stard was still alive. He couldn’t fall first.

Even if his life ended, he had no intention of dying alone.

At least with that guy….

───────!

It was then.

The thorns that filled the area began to collapse.

It turned out that a gorilla had barged in.

“That guy…!”

It was a giant boasting an enormous build. Without any other weapon, he was breaking through this thorny path with just his own body.

He was running towards the center to save Park Won-hyuk.

“Don’t come! This guy is not someone you can handle….”

Before he could finish speaking, Basago sent out countless tentacles. He was trying to stop the giant’s approach.

But.

Swoosh─!

They were blocked by two newly appeared swords. In a short time, all those tentacles were cleared away. The swordsmanship was quite impressive.

It was no wonder they held the titles of top and second place in the entrance exam.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

The runway was opened. An environment where it could rampage even more was created. The giant increased its speed even further.

Bang─!

The giant crushed all the tentacles and thorns that had been restraining Park Won-hyuk.

Afterwards, with Park Won-hyuk slung over its shoulder, it attempted a powerful sergeant jump. They had escaped to a relatively safe perimeter.

“Why….”

Park Won-hyuk couldn’t understand the situation. Why were the rookies here? They should have been sent back to Seoul.

How did they know to come here?

“What kind of state is the guild leader in?”

At that moment, the last intern appeared. He sighed deeply towards the guild leader, who was covered in wounds.

“Did you cause all this commotion at dawn for this? And alone?”

“….”

“Enough. I’ll ask the rest after the battle is over. For now, please rest.”

Shin Yoon-seong picked up a spoon. He infused magic into the small spoon. It instantly grew to a gigantic size.

He then went out to the battlefield with his comrades.

“W-wait….”

Park Won-hyuk reached out towards their departing backs. To grab them.

“Gah…!”

But his body wouldn’t listen. Blood gushed out of his throat. His vision spun.

Come to think of it, that day was just like today.

Park Won-hyuk, who had taken the lead, was injured.

Then his comrades rushed at Basago.

As you know, the result was that only Park Won-hyuk survived.

“No….”

The nightmare of that day was about to start again.

That must be prevented at all costs.

Repeating this endless summer, Park Won-hyuk alone is enough.

He cannot drag those kids into it.

Tak─

Park Won-hyuk once again stood up, pressing his feet to the ground.
